Real world he-she:
Unfortunately, most comics are now politically correct crap. Luckily, I have a box of comics from the 1960s and earlier in the back of my closet that I can read to my grandkids.
Real world he-she:
I no longer pay attention to comic books, or “sequential art”, or whatever euphemism they call themselves.
I still have my CLASSICS ILLUSTRATED and COMBAT magazines from the early 1960s.
Comics were accused of being part of the cause, back when Bobby Kennedy was shot, for being too violent.
So were Pulp fiction books, TV shows, Movies, war toys and toy guns.
Comics and pulp books toned it down for a while, TV shows downgraded themselves to kiddie shows, war toys and toy guns disappeared from the stores.
Movies? They said they would police themselves with a rating system to keep kids out. Instead it unleashed the most vile and bloody movies on the screen. Trailers for these movies rated R or worse were aimed at the pre-teen crowds.
Today’s TV fare would make people in the 1960s have apoplexy!
Lesbians are discriminating against gay men!!!!!!!!! Time to send them to re-education camp too!!!
Rucka replied it would be a huge sign of progress for a gay male character to appear on a comic cover. It'd be even bigger if the character was transgender.
This statement, in a nutshell, perfectly explains why our entire Western culture is swirling down the toilet.
"I love me some comics..."Not terribly surprising, considering that a lot of comic book creators these days at the Big Two (Marvel and DC) are so left wing, they’d chop off their right arm if they could..
Plus DC Comics (owner of Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman) is far behind Marvel (The Avengers, Spider-Man) in sales, so they need to keep pulling “stunts” like this to boost their flagging sales. Marvel’s not immune to stunts as well, having a same-sex “marriage” last year.
Same writer on this Batgirl book, Gail Simone, will also be writing a comic book called “The Movement” glorifying the Occu-pity-partiers out later this year.
Stop buying Marvel and DC and support the independent creative comic books. There are good pro-right wing or at least libertarian) creators out there like Mike Baron and Chuck Dixon.
Being that comic books are a childrens market, I would have solved the issue by reducing the exposure of children to lesbians.
Sick. Just plain sick.
What about the ambiguously gay duo?
Next on the hit parade, it’s the attack of the “shims”.
I’ve never read comic books (except for Jack Chick tracts) and do adults read them and why?
I don’t want to make their readers angry but with an infinite supply of real books with an infinite supply of worlds in them, I don’t see the attraction to adults; never saw it as a kid either.
This development is disturbing. Either they’re writing these homo scenarios for the adult perv market or they’re for children with the purpose of indoctrinating as well as making this mental illness mainstream.
Culturally, we are at the edge of a precipice and once we go over, I can’t imagine what will happen but soon, it will be anything goes and you better celebrate it.
Soon, they’re going to start going down the road towards decriminalization of hard drugs like coke, meth or heroin.
I don’t think Heroin users are violent although I’ve never met one but I know that people on meth or coke are frying their brains as well as their souls and the amount of violence associated with these drugs is staggering.
Never in my wildest dreams did I expect to see what has happened in the last twenty years.
Can they not leave anything alone???
Will I'll go out a buy one -- NOT!!
Todays comic books are PC crap
Here is irony for you. Back in the early 60's there was a stand alone Human Torch story where he battled against a Socialist leaning villian causing rabble-rousing havoc. The villian at the end turned out to be a newspaper publisher. The story was written by - ta do - Stan Lee. I guess they write so much over the years and get lost in the indoctrination, they tend to forget the basics - good over evil. Socialism - evil; American way of life - at the time - good.
Learned alot about good and evil at the time, especially from Captain America. Loved it when he was beating up the Red Skull and at the same time explaining the goodness and rightousness of the United States. Now there are way too many leftists/Marxists in the ranks. They all have to make thier mark by shattering the boundries.
And what is really a shame is they take characters from the past and transform them into something to fit todays culture. Why make Green Lantern gay? Why make the Rawhide Kid gay? You want a LGBT character? Fine. Than create one but don't take an established character and change it. And in a sense they are cowards. If you really want to be edgey, than make one of the big ones gay or whatever deviant of the time this sick culture is championing. But that would be too much of a backlash.
Batwoman is a lesbian?
If its all about diversity, do they already have characters of every race and religion? Wy push only sexual orientation?
